Side Hustle Teachers

No matter what you teach - from kindergarten to AP Chemistry - time is something we teachers all seem to have too little of.  We’re all living minute to minute, just dealing with what’s in front of us.  So how do you find time for your side hustle when you’re already stretched thin? Well… You don’t. Time isn’t just going to magically appear in your crazy schedule. You have to make the time.  If that sounds impossible, stay with me. When I first started blogging in 2012, I was a 24/7 teacher. I ate, slept, and breathed teaching. I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about my students, I spent my evenings planning, and tweaking, and making worksheets… and I was exhausted. How in the world was I going to add the responsibilities that come along with blogging on top of what I was already doing? Sound familiar? Here’s the good news. I didn’t. What I did was this:  Decided that my blog was a priority Set a realistic schedule for when I was going to work on it Planned my time  Focused on one thing at a time
